Native Foods Cafe

Just when I think I can’t eat one more Chipotle burrito bowl I find the worlds best Vegan restaurant. Another reason we need to put our house up on the market and move to Orange County!

Have you ever heard of Native Foods Cafe? Well you should! This one is in Irvine, CA.

Native Foods Café was founded in 1994 by Chef Tanya Petrovna, who has been featured on The Food Network and is the author of two cookbooks. Native Foods Café is the premiere chef-crafted vegan restaurant serving homemade, fresh food every day of the week.

My friend Candice is Gluten Free and not only is all their food vegan they also have a gluten free, dairy free, and nut free menu! We were both excited to eat REAL FOOD!

We were a little obsessed with the Watermelon drink they had. Straight up Watermelon, Honey, and Mint. We both agreed this would be good with a little rum 😉

Now on to what we ordered…

I couldn’t even tell you how good this Kale and Tempeh was. I am drooling just looking at it again. I need to try and make this at home.

Candice loved her Moroccan bowl as well.

And then we went again for dinner the next night!!! It was TACO TUESDAY.

I only wish there was one closer.
